When the bill first went in to default, your original creditor sent it to at least one outside collection agency and if the principal balance was over $1,000.00 probably to 2 or 3 collection agencies. They either deemed you un-collectable or un locatable. Either way it wasn't paid, so they decided to sell the debt to us. We now own it. We can, at our option, take legal action to collect it or try the cheaper alternative for you, and us, which is to work out a way to pay it now.
